“Keeping Up with the Horses.” My mother was the most wonderful Christian I have ever met. I could always hear her on the phone, praying for someone and giving them a scripture.

This cute little guy came to us all the way from Covant... far, far into the mountains, about a day's trip! His mother died from “childbirth fever,” and so the Pastor had to make the long trip down the mountains with the baby in his arms! After he told us the sad story, we agreed...
